May 28, 2020 Abstract. The goal of this project was to produce a high purity, separated (90%) rare earth oxide (REO) product from coal-based sources. This product was achieved using the following three steps: Battelle’s ADP: The ADP process involves pretreatment of ash (milling and caustic leaching), leaching of pretreated ash with nitric acid, roasting of loaded acid solution containing REE, and water ...

In this study, a phosphatic clay containing 258 ppm of total rare earth elements (REEs) was used as a feedstock for REE recovery. By reacting with 0.1 M HCl at 75 C for 3 h, around 36 % of light REEs and 65 % of heavy REEs were extracted from the raw material.
